The Ada County Highway District (ACHD) is beginning to develop and evaluate alternatives to improve Maple Grove Road, Amity Road to Victory Road. Preliminary alternatives consider widening Maple Grove Road to include:

• 3-lane (one lane in each direction with a center turn lane), OR
• 5-lane (two lanes in each direction with a center turn lane), OR
• 4-lane (two lanes in each direction with a continuous center median and roundabouts at key intersections)

All alternatives feature:

• Separated bicycle and pedestrian pathways on both sides with improved crossings at key intersections
• A roundabout at the Maple Grove Road/Amity Road intersection
• New wider bridges over the Knudsen Lateral and Tenmile Feeder canals
